It’s been 5 years since my surgery and I’m ecstatic to report that I’m still a big Zero!

I know I’m one of the lucky ones and I thank all of you that have helped me on my journey. The support, knowledge, information, advice, and encouragement have been phenomenal and a great comfort to me and my wife. I hope that I have been able to give some of that back once I got on the other side.

Although I have not been a frequent visitor to HW of late, I continue to hope and pray for all of you and your caregivers for successful treatment, recovery, and eventual membership in the Zero club.

Hello Tigerfan53,

You returned from a SAFARI ADVENTURE five years ago ...

You became the wild game hunter on that safari ... you snared and caught that dreadful beast, you tamed it, and trapped it its cage ...

Better yet ... you then forged a padlock ... you LOCKED UP that dreadful beast ... and threw away the key ...

Thankful for the CAGE ... thankful for the LOCK ...

Tiger in the trap ... lion in the cage ... dragon in the dungeon !

The sign on the cage reads as follows: "Rest in peace, dreadful beast ... rest in peace !"

The beast no longer roars ...

KEEP LIVING LIFE TO THE FULLEST, TIGERFAN53 ! YOUR SUCCESS IS INSPIRING !

Sent with my BEST, from here in the MIDWEST,
